HUSH-ACTIV KITS BS 5839-6 Grade C Domestic Fire Alarm Kits
INSTALLER’S GUIDE
Approved Document No. DFU0005086 Rev 3
The Hush-ActiV standalone domestic fire alarm kits have been designed to reduce the
incidence of false alarms in HMOs, dwellings, flats, etc., by providing a reliable, fully
monitored fire detection and alarm system complete with hush (silence) and test functions.

HUSH-ACTIV WIRING AND CONNECTIONS (see Fig.2 for typical connections)
All wiring must be installed in accordance with all applicable national, regional or local
standards. In the UK this is BS 7671 (Wiring Regulations) and BS 5839-6 (Grade C System).

CON1 (-ZONE+): The conventional zone circuit connects up
to 16 ActiV detectors (3 detectors supplied with each kit).
Use the supplied diode bases (C4408D) with the detectors.
CON1 (-SNDR+): The conventional sounder circuit connects
up to 8 ActiV sounders (1 sounder supplied with each kit).
CON1 (DC 24V): Connects to 24V external PSU. Typically,
1mm to 1.5mm twin & earth cable may be used.
PLK4: Battery connector. To reduce battery drain, it is
recommended that the battery is connected after the
external 24V power is applied.

HUSH-ACTIV TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
Fig.2 - Typical HAK/1 Hush-ActiV Connections
Fit 35mm deep double gang UK back boxes for both the Hush-ActiV Controller (HA508) and
the Hush PSU (HPPSU). The Hush-ActiV system should be tested monthly per BS 5839-2, or
applicable national, regional or local regulations.

Advantages of a BS 5839 Part 6 Grade C system over a Grade D system
• Fault monitoring of the power supply.
• Fault monitoring of the interconnecting wiring.
• Allows residents to silence & test the system at floor level.
• Does not require mandatory replacement of devices every ten years.
Read these instructions before installation and operation
Refer to the individual
instructions supplied with
each ActiV device for
wiring and specifications.
Note: Connect the supplied EOL capacitor and EOL resistor across the terminals of the last
device on each circuit to allow the wiring to be line monitored for open and short circuit faults.
All -Ve terminals on CON1 are common -Ve. Typically, the conv. detector (ZONE) and sounder
(SNDR) circuits may be wired using 3-core cable, e.g. 1mm to 1.5mm triple & earth cable. All
terminals can accept cables up to 1.5mm. Alternatively, separate 2 x 2-core cable may be used.

PL2 Notes:
1. The wiring to this connection is NOT monitored.
2. The outputs will NOT function with a mains
fail at the HPPSU and therefore must NOT to
be used for life safety purposes.
3. The sounder trigger input is NOT monitored
and will sound at the same tone as the
domestic fire level 1 (FL1) of the Hush-ActiV
system, i.e. there is no separate domestic fire
level 2 (FL2) indications or sound.
Refer to Application Note 0014.1 for PL2
connection details (available @www.c-tec.com).
PL2: Remote Connection.
State State Condition Hush-ActiV Indicators What Happens at Hush-ActiV
1 Normal Operation • Power is applied to the detection and sounder circuits which are monitored for open and short circuit faults.
2 Fire A fire condition has been
activated from a fire detector.
• Beeper sounds.
• HUSH button press moves to State 3.
• Alarm sounders are activated.
• Detection zone resets every 60 seconds and requires a confirmation fire condition to stay in this state.
• If fire condition clears, system resets then automatically returns to State 1.
3
HUSH button
pressed when
in Fire
A fire condition has been activated
but then hushed (silenced).
A 120 seconds hushed (silenced)
period starts.
• Beeper pulse rate gradually increases during the hushed period (10 seconds 50 seconds 90 seconds elapsed).
• HUSH button press resets the hushed timer for another 120 seconds.
• If fire condition is cleared within 120 seconds automatically returns to State 1.
• After 120 seconds have elapsed (and HUSH button NOT pressed) moves to State 2.
4
HUSH button
pressed when
no Fire or Fault
A 15 minutes hushed (silenced)
period starts to allow ‘hot works’
or cooking by the resident.
• Beeper pulse rate gradually increases during the hushed period (10 minutes 15 minutes elapsed).
• HUSH button press returns to State 1 after a hushed period of 0 to 12 minutes have elapsed. After a hushed
period of 13 to 15 minutes have elapsed HUSH button press resets the hushed timer for an additional 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes have elapsed automatically returns to State 1.
5 General Fault
A fault condition has been
activated (e.g. device fault, wiring
fault, battery fault, EOL missing).
• Beeper sounds.
• HUSH button press moves to State 6.
• If fault condition clears, system resets then automatically returns to State 1.
6
HUSH button
pressed when in
Fault
A fault condition has been
activated but then hushed
(silenced). A 24 hour hushed
(silenced) period starts.
• Beeper muted.
• HUSH button press resets the hushed timer for another 24 hours.
• Detection zone resets every 60 seconds and requires a confirmation fault condition to stay in this state.
• If fault condition clears, system resets then automatically returns to State 1.
7 Mains Fault External PSU fails and the unit is
powered on battery only.
• Beeper sounds.
• HUSH button press moves to State 6.
• If fault condition clears, system resets then automatically returns to State 1.
8To Enter Test Mode
Press and hold TEST button for >3 seconds.
• Beeper sounds.
• Alarm sounders are activated for 5 seconds then automatically returns to State 1.
